If you drill down in the Central (ibiblio) repo and the Snapshot repo, you will find a number of Archetypes, including j2ee-simple, webapp, portlet etc. http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/archetypes/
Give them all a try and see what kind of directories, poms, etc are created by each one -- perhaps you will find what you were originally looking for... But manually creating directories and modifying poms is the way I personally create most of my projects. Wayne On 6/10/06, Mike Lundin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Ben, That's the kind of feedback I was looking for, yes. For some reason, I had it in my head that you shouldn't touch the directory structure once the archetype did it's work, but as I think about it, the pom that both archetypes create is almost the same. Thinking along those lines, adding the directories manually begins to make sense.
